[Blasthardcheese]

Just to clarify, you answered "Yes" to being in a Republic guild and when asked which one if you are, you mentioned your Sorcerer.

Error.

Does not compute.

[Walela]

Correction made. I am not ina any other republic guild, I am in a imperial guild.

[Nwahs]

Good to know :)  I liked your app!  What are most excited about with the expansion?

[Walela]

so much, from more levels, to new content, the whole change to the crafting, and companions.  I like the level spec as it will let me play with friends who don;t have higher level toons yet and let me go back to do content at the right level that I have not done.  It is like the old world is now new to explore.

[Walela]

I have read and accept the charter of Pax Republica

[Tiffs/Hugtastic]

So you are a regular imp player?  Will you be able to play a good bit on the pub side if accepted into our guild?

[Walela]

I have been dealing with some major health issues so really have not been a regular player at all.  Though those issues are slowly easing away and allowing me time to be in game more.  I enjoy both sides, factions and story lines, so I can say I would give equal time to both, but time will tell, if something more exciting is going on in one then I will focus there more.  I am not seeking to glue myself to a single character or faction as I do enjoy all aspects of the game.  Though when I am playing my pub toon it will be devoted to the guild and what I know and learn of the guild will stay with that character and guild.  I am just seeking good people to enjoy the game with more than anything else. I have a good friend as well applying to this guild and thought it would be wonderful to be with him also.  I spend a few hours, like 2 to 5 a few days a week in game at this point.

Hello Walela, welcome to our little nook in the universe, and Thank you for your Application! Many of us have Imp toons that we play on as well. As long as you meet our participation requirements you should have any problems. Don't be surprised though if you find yourself hanging out with us more often, cause we are that awesome and you are gonna LOVE us (hehe).

Have you ever been in a SWTOR guild before? What is your favorite character storyline so far?

 

[Walela]

Heck one day a week, I can handle, no worries at all, and I do look forwards to spending time with awesome folks, as I think i am rather awesome myself without sounding to narcissistic..actually so is Narr, the other applicant, he and i are rather good friends,so perhaps I am a bit biased towards him.

 

I use to be in Freedom Warriors, though the guild really died after the main players got their conquest titles, and got very elitist not making it easy to get into groups.  The guild leader in a guild meeting had recommended that if we wanted groups and to complete conquest to go join another guild, so many of us did just that, me being one of them.  Though I liked a handful of people in the  guild and thought I was liked by others, it was time to move on and find a guild that I could work with.  I joined another, forget their name,. but as well they were dead, no one around when I was, then health issues hit and here I am today, wha-la, wonderful me, but I will wait and give you all a chance to learn that of me. :)

 

So far the merc story line has been my favorite, even if the sorc/sage is my favorite character to play.

Welcome to your trial process for Pax Republica! Let's get started:

During this welcoming period you will have 14 days to complete some tasks that will acclimate you into the guild and help you decide if we are the right guild for you!

Then, there will be three days for guild members to vote on whether or not they believe you should be allowed to join.  Virtually no one gets voted no... usually by then someone that doesn't fit in has already been asked to end their trials.

(If you need your Trial to be extended a couple of days due to a trip, or a serious emergency, etc., please contact an Admin and be sure to let them know when you'll be back.)

If you have any questions during any phase of your trials, a lot of helpful information can be found HERE.

Please post in your thread whenever you complete a task.

Here are your tasks:

Complete √ 1. Update your profile here at Pax Republica with a forum Avatar. ***NOTE***- Your avatar cannot be one of the generic default avatars that GuildLaunch gives you. It should be something unique so that it's easier to associate your name with some kind of image, this allows us to get to know you better.

Complete √ 2. Make an introductory post in your specified class forum provided below. Please use it as a chance to introduce yourself to the family, as this is a more permanent area for people to get to know you (your own "personal area" on the forums, if you will) than your application thread.

Trooper Barracks - Smuggler Cantina - Consular Library - Knight Praxeum

Complete √ 3. Either your Guild Launch user name should be your "main" character name in SWTOR, or you should link your main character to your GL account, so that when people see your profile name and avatar on the forums, they also see your most often played character in SWTOR so they can learn who you are. Here's how to do the latter:

• Click on your name at the top right of the forums and hit "View Your Profile" in the pull-down menu.
• See over to the right where it says "Stats"?  Click the link that says "Characters".
• You may see a list of characters you've created on Guild Launch.  If you have already created a SWTOR character with the name for your most commonly played SWTOR character (your main), go to the next step.  If not... click Add In-Game Info.  Fill out the fields to create your character.   
• Now that your character is made, go to View Profile.
• Click sites
• Click "settings" under Pax Republica
• Choose your main character and click "Post As".

Complete √ 4. Go over our Charter (our Rules and Regulations document) and be sure to post that you accept it. Please read it carefully BEFORE accepting. Click here.

Complete √ 5. Log on to SWTOR and whisper anyone of rank Justicar or above with your in-game name so we can add you to the guild. For a list of our rank structure and names of officers, please Click here.

Complete √ 6. Arrange and interview with an officer. The interview with be conducted in Teamspeak. The interview gives you the chance to meet with an officer and ask any questions you may have regarding your membership in the guild, and they will take the opportunity to get to know you better.

For a complete list of officers you can approach for an interview, Click here. It is YOUR responsibility to post in your trials thread that you need an interview and to let officers know what your schedule is so that they can offer to help you... or you can PM an officer to schedule your interview before Phase 1 is over. Please don't leave this until the last minute.

Complete √ 7. Group with Pax Republica members to complete 3 guild "missions". You must be in Teamspeak during these missions. A single mission is either:

1. Two GSF battles
2. One Flashpoints
3. Two Warzones
4. Half a PvE Raid (In other words, one raid attendance counts as two of these "missions")
5. 30-45minutes of any other in-game activity (questing, etc.)

(Note: It is up to you to post here the different "missions" you completed and who was in the group(s).) The point of this step is to get in groups with Pax members to get to know them, and for them to get to know you!

► Voting Phase

8. Members will have 3 days to vote on whether you have passed or failed as a member, so sit back and relax!

While you wait to pass your trials, you should check out the entire forums if you haven't already.  If you're a raider, be sure to read all the PvE forums - raiding guidelines, DPS parses, etc.  You should post in the PvE forums a thread saying you're interested in raiding with your time availability, current gear level, class, talent spec, how many datacrons you've collected, if you have companion bonuses, etc. Same thing with PvP or GSF... post in those forums with similar information if you're interested!

This is also a time you can ask around about how to join our Pax Republica Facebook Group and our Pax Republica GroupMe Channels.

 

 

Good luck!

[Walela]

Introduction,2,3, & 4 completed.

Hmm... questions... questions questions questions... *sifts through imaginary papers*

Ah! Here we go.

When watching something, and you begin to wonder how they eat, breathe, and other various science facts, what should you repeat to yourself?

[Walela]

Cracks up laughing.."It's just a show, I should really just relax. lalalala."

[Blasthardcheese]

Correct! You have instantly passed all current and future trials.
